Sacred Pet Care by Stacey & Sage
Pet care experience
I have owned and cared for cats, dogs & birds for most of my life. The bond between animals & humans are sacred. I know how hard it is to leave your fur or feather baby home while you travel (it's scary!). I am that animal lover that will treat your fur baby like my own until you return. I love getting on the floor and playing with pets. It's important to spend at least an hour with your baby every time I come over to feed them. Depending on the age & temperament of your fur baby, I will just sit with them and give them pets & love. Maybe we need to go out for a walk or run. Or maybe your baby is somewhat feral and is afraid to come out with strangers...thats okay too. I will always announce myself in a gentle voice and talk to them as I refresh food & water supplies. (I have provided photos to owners of "feral cats" who have come out to be pet while in my care - which shocked their human!) I have been called an Animal Whisperer more than once. I will meet your pet where they are at and provide care to their comfort. I will update you daily as to how they are doing. And you can relax knowing your fur baby is getting the same level of love & care that they would be getting from you. - My 16 year old, Sage, is amazing with animals as well and loves to help. This comes in handy when there are multiple pets to care for at once so they all get simultaneous attention. XO Will provide referrals upon request. :)
Reviews
Amazing sitter! Her and my kitty got along so well. She is so kind and caring towards the pets. 10/10 recommend!!
Stacey is a caring, trustworthy and responsible person. She communicated very clearly and punctually. She was so accommodating with our schedules and the many issues Simba had. Thank you Stacey!
Stacey cared for my Maggie with great attention to detail. She sent me pictures and comments during her visit. I appreciate have her caring for my dog!
Stacey was wonderful! She truly went above and beyond to make sure our babies felt loved and safe. Stacey was great with communicating and made sure to reach out with any questions. She sent updates every day with pictures, and did more than we had asked (scooped the kitty litter every day, cleaned a bowl I had left in the sink, etc). This was the first time I had come home after having a pet sitter where my babies were obviously relaxed and happy, it was such a relief. I was able to enjoy my trip without being stressed about home. I will definitely work with Stacey again should the need arise.

Information Stacey S. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know about any particular special needs for your fur baby ahead of time so I know what to expect and can work with them on it. We want this to be as seamless and fun as possible for them! (And as comfortable as possible for YOU so you know your pet is in good hands with me)
A typical day
I love to walk/run with active dogs (but can stroll slowly if needed for the old timers) ? We will play for an extended period of time with your Pups toys before the walk. If your fur baby is socialized, we will go to a park. If they are not so people/other dog friendly, I am used to being on high alert for these walks to make sure everyone is safe. We will just stroll and sniff around the neighborhood. If your pup likes the dog park or dog beach in Santa Cruz, we can make it a fun day together too! I will meet your pet wherever they are at and plan with you ahead of time to personally plan our creative time together. ????

Availability
I am currently working part time and create my own schedule. So I can build pet care into my days based on what you need from me. I am open to do neighborhood walks, play dates, daily feedings and overnight pet care. The only thing I cannot do is boarding or daycare at my home at this time.
